Latest completed kit
Hi everyone,

I thought I would take a brake from car modeling and try something different.....

Tell me what you think!

P.s. I know that the exhaust needs repainting, I just can't be bothered taking it all apart at the moment!

Can anyone tell me how to turn the pictures, ...... I'm soooo usless with fricken computers!

Very nicely done! like the way you only painted half of the bike's cowling!

as for the pictures ... dunno, I guess you can rotate them in most of the paint programmes...

It's a Tamiya Yamaha YZF R1 with a custom paint scheme. Very nice, too.

Actually the YZF-R1 with the Taira Racing colours. (Kit 14074 from Tamiya) http://www.tamiyausa.com/product/plastic/112motorcycleseries/14074.html

Nice kit, and nicely done with the use of the full-view fairing. The exhaust looks OK, but I've seen some nice articles with the heat-banding done very effectively. Your kit is pretty well done though.

Yep, that's the one...........


the rest of the bike is realy good, shame it looks so grany on the photos, it's just the exhaust that lets it down, I will get around to redoing it, it was my first attempt at exhaust shading, and I took it a little too far............ Then while I was handeling it the Alclad paint came off, I tried to touch it up.............. now it just looks like s**t.

I keep it facing away from me on the shelf!
